Left 4 Dead 2

Okay, me and others are starting to get really annoyed at how the latest patch has messed up the game for a LOT of people, including me. I can't even get my game to start after numerous uninstalls of the game AND Steam itself...I've tried renaming the ClientRegistry.blob, verifying file integrity etc. and nothing is working! It sucks because I'm just sitting there watching my friends play the game with no issue...

well, i experienced that many times. change download local in steam settings(one you think its better or big city). dont forget to do this: choose "change user" but dont log in, close it. open the steam installer and choose "repair installation" then you can log in again. try to run game.

I keep crashing in game. Sometimes it's randomly during gameplay and other times I noted crashes is when picking up a melee weapon or getting attacked by any special zombie. I tried reinstalling the game, verifying game cache numerous times, and search the web for general fixes, ALL of them did NOTHING. This game is unplayable and need some help. It would be ideal if we could get an offical response from Valve themselves, but let's be honest that is not going to happen.

did u try to re-open stem with change user? do that then use CCleaner. i must finish steam to remember the repair option, but you must download the latest version on steam site, download the SteamInstall.msi and them set to repair. hey, dont forget to check if the firewall is trolling you.

So there was an update for my graphics card, which seems to have fixed the crashing that occurs for me when picking up a melee weapon or getting attacked by a special zombie. Now I'm just facing the most random crashes to desktop with no error messages.

Is there an error log in the l4d2 folder in my steam folder somewhere?
